Tommy Wright has made up his mind on Lee Croft

Lee Croft will be back in the old routine now that he has agreed a new deal with St Johnstone to stay until the end of the season. Midfielder Croft has been training with his former club and has impressed manager Tommy Wright enough to earn a short-term contract. The former Manchester City player had been with the Perth side on loan in 2012 while registered to Derby County, before moving to Oldham. Croft had been without a club since the summer before agreeing to return to McDiarmid Park.Wright told the club's website: "I know what we are getting with Lee. He did well for us the season before last and I am confident he has plenty to offer us this season. He played 54 times last season for Oldham and I'm surprised he has found himself in this position but I'm delighted to get him for the remainder of this season and maybe even beyond."
